Red, Irritated Bumps With Red Dots And Itchy Face. No Help From Steroidal Creams For Long Eczema Episodes. Suggestions?
Hi I have to several dermatologist to find a solution to my eczema or at least I have been thinking it has been eczema for the past 30 years. I have steroidal creams for long periods of my eczema episodes. And now not even those creams work. They have tried several non steroidal creams on my face where the eczema is and it has only gotten worse. I know suffer from a red irritated bumpy with red dots and itchy face. I feel like I have over tried my cure or somewhat feeling better. I feel helpless and upset that I can't find something to help my eczema.
